Last Minute Bidding. HOW TO AVOID SNIPERS on s!

Okay..we've all had our eye on something, found it on okay, and bid what we were willing to pay for it...confident that we would get it....Then, to our surprise, at the very last SECOND, we're outbid by a cent or two!! How Frusterating!
It's a pretty gemon practice for bidders to be sniped at that very last min. by watchers. This happens when the bidding is about ready to end, but in the remaining few min and hours, people start to agressively bid to get it for the cheapest price possible.
It is also true that the bidder will not be outbid by a sniper if the BIDDER places a reasonable HIGH bid with a good max amount set. If the bidding is good and high then the sniper might feel that the bidder has a high "MAX" bid and the sniper may not want to play that game anymore, thus the bidder wins. ALWAYS BID USING ODD NUMBERS
